Ad specs and formatting requirements
Formatting requirements
• Camera-ready artwork in PNG or PDF is preferred.
• Resolution should be 300 dpi or greater.
• Convert images to CMYK.
Design notes
• Newspapers are printed with a CMYK color process. Simple colors using only one or two inks work best.
• White text on a dark background may not print clearly and may cause the background color to bleed through the newsprint or smudge the facing page.
• Find more information about designing for newsprint here.
• Send questions, ad artwork and contracts to editor@hazelwoodinitiative.org.
